The Los Angeles Lakers had a dream 2019-20 season, first with the acquisition of Anthony Davis and then going onto lift their 17th championship in tough circumstances. While the the LA side, Clippers was one of the favourites to lift the title when the season re-started in Orlando Bio bubble. But the team messed it up in the Western Conference semi-finals against the Denver Nuggets. 

Even in the 2020-21 offseason, Lakers have been one of the most active and dominant teams in acquiring players. On the contrary Clippers let one after the other players slip from their hands. With the NBA pre-season beginning soon, it will be a sight to see which LA team will come out on the top. If one was to believe Kendrick Perkins, the Lakers have already won the free agency. 

Kick Y’all out of Staples Center: Kendrick Perkins praises LA Lakers 

NBA analyst Kendrick Perkins recently talked about the best team of Los Angeles in ESPN’s “First Take,” and he said, “When you think about the biggest free agency, the biggest free agent, who had the biggest free agent signing. You think of one city – The Los Angeles. And when you think of Los Angeles, one movie comes to mind – Friday. And guess what Rob Pelinka was like Deebo and Lawrence Frank was Red.”

Perkins further praised Rob Pelinka for his terrific efforts this offseason. He said, “I’m looking at what Rob Pelinka has done, and he has straight Deebo’d the Los Angeles Clippers and let them know that the Lakers still run this town. So we’re going to take Montrezl Harrell and kick y’all out of the Staples Center.” 

The purple and gold have already proved themselves last season and will be targeting a repeat this year. Meanwhile, the Clippers still have to prove themselves and overcome the criticism that they have received after their infamous playoff meltdown.
